Acute hippocampal infarction
Case Discussion:
CT demonstrates hypoattenuation in the region of the left hippocampus.
On subsequent MRI, there is swelling of the left hippocampus with T2 and DWI hyperintensity involving the hippocampal body and tail, consistent with acute hippocampal infarction.
There is also a meningioma arising from the planum sphenoidale.
